Do these look cute on babies?

[HelloDenise]

These are from online catalogues. The kids look swamped in these!

They look ridiculous. Poor babies.

Ha ha. Very funny.

Only cute if the baby has her ears pierced and she is also wearing a pink velvet Juicy couture track suit. So, no, they are tacky and terrible.

Loathe headbands on baby girls. Entirely pointless.

Awful - I’m sure they must be uncomfortable for the babies as well? Definitely not as comfy as a bare head, anyway. Utterly pointless.

Not my thing but it's also not harming anyone, so who cares? Babies will pull them off if they don't like wearing them, much like they do with hats.

They look cute, but they're babies they'd look cute in any kind of hat type thing.

I can't get het up about a big bow. Never put DD in them because she wouldn't keep a basic beanie on her head so a bow never stood a chance. Much like baby socks, they're a pointless item of clothing because you spend more time picking them up than they spend wearing them.

I had exactly the same... both of my boys had beautiful blonde curls and looked quite girly until after toddlerhood/they had their first hair cuts. Even when dressed in blue dinosaur dungarees etc.!

I actually thought it was pretty cute and didn't give it a moments thought beyond "I have such a beautiful angelic looking boy" and finding it amusing 🤣

Fully expecting my girl to wear the same blue dinosaur dungarees (and various other items of "blue/boys" clothing) at some point... it'll be interesting to see what kind of comments we get!

The second picture - the baby looks like an elderly woman in her headscarf and bangle!
Awful.

I hate headbands and bows on babies. I think they are a hazard and look silly. My child did wear one a few times to appease my Mum who'd bought them for her but I whipped them of as soon as she'd gone.

Cute, ridiculous & just plain silly are essentially the same thing though, aren’t they?

They look absolutely hideous. Just like babies in earring.
Grow up! it’s a child, not a doll!

Horrid

True, they're not dolls. But babies being essentially quite dull and demanding little creatures, personally I found dressing them in ridiculous outfits to be one way of mitigating the tedium. Bows were never my thing, but both my babies spent a large part of the Christmas period dressed as reindeer or Christmas puddings.

I hate them with a passion. Even a headband with a small bow makes me irrationally annoyed

No, they look fucking stupid absurd and ridiculous.

For me it’s a no, a baby doesn’t need one of them on their head, but they are cute babies and hard to uncute them.

Common. Almost as bad as the newborn babies who get scrunched up into ridiculous poses for photos to be taken of them in a birds nest or looking like a baby hedgehog.

Cringe.

…or peering out of a flower pot 🙈

I hate them and my DD would have whipped that off within 2 seconds if I had been foolish enough to put it on her head. Along with socks, shoes, cardigans etc etc

I don’t care for them they are too floppy. I prefer the smaller ones from back in the day

I've tried smaller headbands once or twice with DD when she was 4 or 5 months old.
Within seconds it was on the floor or over her eyes.
Not baby friendly!

I think they can look cute, depending on the baby. All babies are adorable but in all honesty, some are a bit potato headed and sticking a bow on her, doesn't improve this! On a pretty baby, it can potentially look sweet.

I would rather buy that cute little strawberry hat, if I had a newborn baby girl now though.

That second photo looks like a doll! Something about the hands.
